5.诚实有益(It Pays to Be Honest)

1.当前社会上存在许多不诚实的现象。

2.诚实利人利己,做人应该诚实。

这是一篇论说文,从题目看,应从正面论证诚实的益处。第一段,举例说明在社会上存在的诸多不诚实现象,给社会和个人都造成了极大的伤害。第二段,从正面说明诚实既利人又利己,通过举例说明做人应该诚实。

参考范文:

As society and economy develop, dishonesty is no longer a stranger to us. Manufacturers and businessmen may promise more than their products can guarantee so as to make more profit. Doctors and nurses may lie to their patients for their patients’ benefit. Students may cheat on exams for better scores. As a matter of fact, dishonesty has become so widespread that wherever you are you find cases of dishonesty.

However, it is honesty that brings benefit both to yourself and to others. By being honest, manufacturers and businessmen build up mutual trust between themselves and customers, which in the long run generates more profit. By telling patients the truth about their conditions so that they can make their own decisions, doctors and nurses enhance their own credibility and honor their profession. By giving honest answers to questions, not only can students themselves learn about their own strengths and weaknesses, but they help their teachers evaluate the quality of their instruction as well. Therefore, it pays to be honest and everybody must learn to be honest.

My Opinion on Cheating in Examinations

It is known to us all that some students cheat in examinations at school.

My Opinion on Cheating in Examinations

It is known to us all that some students cheat in examinations at school.

As students, we often take examinations at school, but sometimes we have too many examinations whichare too difficult for us. On the other hand, some of us are lazy and don't work hard at our lessons. So when taking examinations, some students sometimes cheat in order to get better results to please their parents and teachers.

In my opinion, it is wrong to cheat in examinations because it break the rules of schools. We students should be honest and try to get good results by studying hard instead of cheating in examinations. What's more, we should improve our study methods and get well prepared for examinations.

我对考试作弊的看法

大家都知道一些学生考试作弊。作为学生我们经常参加各种考试。有时有些考试对我们来说太难了。另一方面,我们中有些人学习不用功,所以当他们参加考试时,他们为拿高分去取悦父母和老师有时就会作弊。

依我看,作弊不对,违反校规。我们学生应当诚实,用努力学习采取得好成绩,而不是依靠作弊。还有我们要改进学习方法,为考试做好充足准备。

The Most Important Thing in the World

In my opinion,the most important thing in the world is TIME. However long one may live,his life consists of a certain number of years,and a year has only12months,a month30days and one day24hours.Once you waste one hour,you can not get it back no matter how much you would pay for it.

Even though you are the richest person in the world,you can not afford to waste your time,because it means that you are wasting your life.Even though you are the most powerful person in the world,one hour has60minutes for you just as for everyone else who struggles at the bottom of the society.

Some people think that the most important thing in the world is money.In their opinion,if you have enough money,you will have everything you want.I would like to ask them a simple question:Can you buy time?

The only thing with which we can win more time is efficiency.If you work with high efficiency,you can do more in a certain period of time than other people.
